More evidence of right-wing links to Tucson attack

More evidence of right-wing links to Tucson attack By Patrick Martin 13 Jan 2011 While right-wing pundits and politicians continue to claim that it is illegitimate to hold them morally or politically responsible for the massacre carried out in Tucson, Arizona last Saturday, more evidence has emerged that the gunman, Jared Lee Loughner, drew inspiration from the political language and invective of the ultra-right. The Los Angeles Times published a detailed summary of the ideological roots of the attack, in which Loughner killed six people, including a federal judge, and severely wounded Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. The analysis was headlined, "Loughner’s Ramblings Appear Rooted in Far Right."

am I not surprised the "left wing" LA Times would report such nonsense. This has nothing to do with politics, he is just a psycho that lost it. If anyone should be accused of politically motivated violence it is our left wing controlled govt., the most violent gang on planet Earth.
